Sell your Sony Phone

It's important to get your phone’s model correct prior to selling it to avoid any surprises.

We suggest you reference SONY’s very own how to find the model number and name of an Xperia mobile phone or tablet to assist you in finding your model information.

It really depends. If you're an experienced seller on eBay or Craigslist, you will likely get the highest value for your Xperia phone on those platforms. However, they do require more effort from the seller, charge fees, and come with risk of fraud that novice sellers may not know how to protect themselves from.

If you share some of these concerns then we recommend using a trade-in site such as ItsWorthMore. Trade in websites leverage their volume discounts and industry know-how to provide a smooth streamlined experience; for a slightly lower payout.

Another alternative is to trade in your phone directly with your carrier or with Sony. These typically offer the lowest payouts and often come in the form credit towards the latest phone. Carriers tend to run promotions at times as well, usually if you switch carriers. Under the right circumstances, they can result in a very high return for your device. 

Some older Xperia phones, especially non-functional ones, do not have much of a resale value and you can choose to recycle them. Recycling in an environmentally friendly manner helps to keep toxic pollutants, such as lead, out of the environment. Keeping us all healthier and happier!
